GRAVETTE — An “Easter Egg Stravaganza” will be held Saturday, April 7, at the Ozarks Community Hospital Clinic in Gravette.

All kinds of free activities will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with egg hunts separated by age groups starting at 10:30 a.m.

Besides the traditional egg hunts, there will be egg decorating, face painting, crafts, games, food, a “bounce house” and a petting zoo.

There will also be a special appearance by the Easter bunny.

“It will be held rain or shine,” said its sponsors, the Boys & Girls Club, Gravette Gleamers 4-H, the Gravette Public Library and the Ozarks CommunityHospital. “This will be a free, fun family event for the Gravette community,” the sponsors said.

“If you would like to help, please drop off donated candy (preferably no chocolate) and small egg stuffers to one of the following locations: Gravette Public Library, Ozarks Community Hospital, Arvest Bank, Teasley Drug or the Bank of Gravett.”
